Field of Dreams

(Life In Song #320)

Here’s a quickie music video I threw together featuring the footage I got the other day from “Blackberry Fields,” an old abandoned farm I’m considering leasing for Healing Pastures.

I DEFINITELY had this song playing in my head as I wandered around the overgrown fields slowing going back to brush and forest, imagining it a thriving farm with happy animals and microbes in the soil… oh and a happy musician/farmer!

enjoy!
Here’s the audio streaming and download player thingy:

Field of Dreams

Song #320 |  7/20/2002  | CD: Thirsty For the Sky | Tuning: EBBEBE

When I was a young boy I dreamed a mighty dream
but I told it to the dream thieves and they laughed and called me “green”
They told me I should wake up to reality
They said that I had better take responsibility

So I got myself a good job and I went to school at night
I followed to the letter all their “sound” advice
I got a better job and then a bigger house and car
I had my benefits and a dozen credit cards

Refrain:
Take a ride, take a ride with me
Take a ride and see
Take a ride, take a ride with me
To your field of dreams

One night I could not sleep and so I went out for a walk
It seemed as if the moonlight and the stars began to talk
They whispered and they sang about my long forgotten dream
They told me I could live it. It was mine still to redeem.

The moon said I should listen to that still small voice inside
Instead of to the dream thieves cause the dream thieves have to lie
They have to steal from you cause the’ve been robbed right to the bone
But if you dare to live your dream, they just might find their own.

Refrain:

Bridge:
Why do you see the possibilities?
Why do you live a might dream lately?
Why do you listen to your own wisdom?
Why do you know to ask the right questions?

Refrain:

So if you are a young boy or a young girl in your heart
Now is the time to give that mighty dream of yours a start
If you come to a crossroads where you need to choose
Choose the “path with heart” and it will give you dancing shoes…

Refrain:

Why do you see the possibilities?…
